#LGBT Issues

terfs and radfems love to say they advocate for trans men/mascs and then continuously misgender us, objectify us, send us death and rape threats, harrass us, call us delusional women (and when they want to sprinkle in a little homophobia, "confused lesbians"), tell us we're mutilating ourselves, spread fearmongering misinformation about bottom surgery (especially phalloplasty), make fun of trans men/mascs looks, make fun of feminine trans men/mascs, make fun of masculine trans men/mascs, make fun of androgynous trans men/mascs, call us gay men fetishizers, tell us to stay away from gay men, call us predatory in general, make us feel like we're not allowed to date anyone, if we're gay and t4t call us lesbians, and countless other horrific behaviours like who the hell do you think you're fooling?

The 25-year-old man, who came to Canada in 2018 as an international student, and has since worked in Edmonton, Alberta as a nurse, ran out of options this year when his work visa expired and his application for refugee status was rejected.
Uganda has become one of the most dangerous countries for LGBTQ+ people this year, with the introduction of its harsh Anti-Homosexuality Act.
The act, which was signed into law in May, calls for the death penalty for certain same-sex activities, and has prompted a torrent of abuse against LGBTQ+ people in the country, from both citizens and police.

A handful of states are eyeing laws that would allow criminal charges against school librarians for distributing books that contain "obscene matter."
Why it matters: GOP state lawmakers have in recent years increased their efforts to ban material they deem inappropriate from schools and libraries.
That material includes books on gender identity and sexual orientation.
Critics, including the American Civil Liberties Union of West Virginia, said the bill "is designed to create confusion for educators about what kinds of materials can be taught or displayed."
The American Library Association said this type of legislation would allow for "advocacy groups and parents to sue or prosecute library workers" for providing books and other materials that present "accurate medical information about sex or puberty, describe sexual behavior, or reflect the experiences of LGBTQ+ persons."
The ALA noted that such legal action would be "based on the false claim that any material that includes information about sex, sexuality, gender identity, or sexual orientation is legally obscene and inappropriate for minors."

hey
hey you 🫵 fellow queer person
this is your daily reminder that infighting within our community doesn’t help us. It only makes our oppressors stronger. So if you don’t understand someone’s identity or feel it doesn’t fit your idea of how that identity should be used, just LEAVE IT BE. We need to focus on the people who want us illegal and dead. The meowgender it/its user and the bisexual cis woman are hated by bigots just the same.

The ‘queers for Palestine’ movement makes me laugh cause really ? Queers for Palestine? Do you know what they would do to you over there ? Do you know what hamas does to gay’s, lesbians and trans people? Let me share some examples. Mahmoud Ishtiwi was a hamas loyalist and militant himself, and his own people hung him from a ceiling, whipped him, and eventually put him to death because of mere accusations of him having sex with another man. Another was Ahmed Abu Marhia, they severed his head. They decapitated him for being gay and left his head on the side of a random road. Your ignorance is painful but also a danger to you.

"i bet [transmasc person] will end up as a terf anyway lmao" you know thats a fucked up thing to say right? you know it's fucked up to say that when terfs actively try to groom transmasc people, especially young transmasc people, into becoming terfs right? Right?

In the 1970s, some gay community leaders turned their backs on the “less respectable” (read: trans, gender-weird, drag-performing, poor, racialized and/or flaming) members of their community in a cynical ploy to gain acceptance and power for themselves—at the expense of their more marginalized peers. There’s no better example than when, in 1973, the New York Pride Committee tried to bar trailblazing trans women of colour Marsha P. Johnson and Sylvia Rivera from participating in the Pride parade because they were giving the organization “a bad name.” This decision by the local Pride committee exemplified a broader trend where some gay activists sought to push out more marginalized community members to win respectability and influence.
Flash forward 50 years and history is repeating itself in Canadian politics. As anti-LGBTQ2S+ hate rises across Canada, with even CSIS sounding the alarm, and trans lives being used as a political punching bag by far-right groups, Melissa Lantsman and Eric Duncan, the two (and only two) openly gay Conservative MPs, and other Conservative MPs who’ve called themselves our allies, are turning their backs on LGBTQ2S+ rights.

Just got an email from Pinterest telling me one of the pins I had saved was deleted for being too sexual, so I tried to check which one it was bc obviously I have a LOT of things saved on there.
And I discovered that since around July 2023 they seem do be doing a weird purge of anything """"sexual"""" and guess what... It's bad lol.
So... Some stuff that looks queer gets flagged, despite not actually being sexual and just a little public display of affection...
Men can't be in bikini bc ooo oh noooo bulge ig even tho fully covered and less revealing than most men's swimming wear
Batgirl is apparently obscene here bc boobs
women can't even be fully clothed if you can kinda see through their top despite the photo being clearly not sexual at all in any way, like ok she's hot but that's not a crime
And the most ridiculous for last.
The little mail they sent me states that content that gets removed is either:
Nudity
Sexualized content, including when ppl are fully or partially clothed
Graphic representations of sexual acts in image or text
Fetish content
So weird when "sexualized" is an action, and like, who decides what is sexualized and what is fetish content?
Because ok if there an account posting pictures of feet everyday it's probably a fetish but that doesn't mean you should ban every pic with ppl who are barefoot?
None of the things I posted here belongs to a porn website.
Long live puritanism ig /s
So save the content that you love while it's still up especially if it's queer and if this post gets removed from tumblr I'll scream btw.

TERFS are trying to drive a wedge within the queer community and I need you guys to understand this.
TERFS want to pretend that they care about gay men and lesbians. They will say things like. “I’m protecting the sanctity of same sex relationships from women with dicks and men with vaginas.” They really want to convince gay men and especially lesbians that if you date a women with a penis or a man with a vagina that they are tainted and can’t possibly be gay or lesbian because they can’t possibly believe that as a lesbian you might want to have a sex with a girl that just so happens to have a penis.
The reality is that this is ultimately a non issue. Who cares if a lesbian or gay man wants to date someone with different genitals as them. And yet TERFS will use this argument in order to play divide and conquer within the community. They want to turn gay men and lesbians against trans people so that it can shatter our ability to advocate for ourselves. Let me remind you that gay marriage would not be possible without trans people. If you take trans people out of the community we’re nothing. We need to stand up against these arguments and to spread awareness about them. And to speak out against TERFS when they enter our spaces. It doesn’t matter if they’re a member of the community or not. If they’re spreading transphobic rhetoric they need to be kicked out of our spaces.

I need you guys to understand that this is how Republicans think. Everything not straight or cis to them is inappropriate. That’s because when they see “lgbt” they just see a porn category and nothing else. This even includes asexuals and aromantics.
They don’t change because they don’t want to change. They won’t listen to you because they don’t want to listen to you. It’s willful ignorance.
